Electric Truck Battery Maintenance
Battery charging installations must be located in areas designated for
that purpose. These areas must be kept free of all nonessential com-
bustible materials.
Facilities must be provided for:
• Flushing spilled electrolyte.
• Fire protection.
• Protecting charging apparatus from damage by trucks.
• Adequate ventilation for dispersal of fumes from gassing batteries.
When handling acid concentrates greater than 50% acid (above 1.400
specific gravity), an eye wash fountain must be provided.
A conveyor, overhead hoist, or equivalent material handling equipment
must be provided for handling batteries.
IMPORTANT
Electric truck batteries are heavy and awkward to
handle. They are filled with a very hazardous chemical
solution. On charge, they give off hydrogen which,
in certain concentrations, is explosive. And, they are
costly. Before you remove, service, or install a truck
battery, carefully read the following recommendations
and instructions.
